Depression After Rhinoplasty?

[ilike]

It has been reported that disrupting the sensitive receptors such as the Turbinate structure -- 3 flexible spongy, yet meaty flaps which moisten and control the temperature of the air which you breathe -- in the nose can lead to minor disorientation and depression for several weeks and sometimes months after rhinoplasty or Septoplasty. Unfortunately, there is no sure fire way to know that this is the reason for uneasiness as you could generally be depressed due to being psychologically unable to accept your bruises and discolorations or swelling. As well as disliking the shape of your new nose.

If anything you must remember that your rhinoplasty takes about a year to fully refine although most of the swelling that others may notice, dissipates in a few months. Please be sure to choose your doctors wisely when it comes to rhinoplasty as secondary (revision) surgery is more difficult to perform due to scar tissue and less tissue to work with in general. In other words, it is easier to remove than to replace.

It is possible if you have a Rhinoplasty, Septoplasty or Turbinectomy that the Turbinate structure can be harmed. Be sure that your doctor advises of you of the risks and complications resulting from rhinoplasty and even though rare, Turbinate damage is possible.

I personally would be ecstatic about it, I had a dream I had it done and cried when I found out I was just dreaming.
I could see how it could cause depression though, because it's like being in a whole new world and a part of you has been taken away.
